Wifi

Here are a few links related to wifi, from 802.11 router firmware to antennas.

DD-WRT  is a “universal” firmware, working with many different brands of routers.

I have been using an older one called Tomato .

One quickie “no mod” improvement is to add an antenna reflector.  FreeAntennas has printable templates to make your own rubber ducky reflector.

Some more antenna designs can be found as follows
